Solipsistic

Solipsistic is a body of work derived from the philosophy of solipsism; that the self can know nothing but its own modifications and that the self is the only existent thing. As a metaphysical position, solipsism goes further to the conclusion that the world and other minds do not exist. The work seeks to immerse the viewer in their own reflection and to blur the boundaries between self and other. This work is partly inspired by philosopher Alan Watts and includes a spoken lecture by Watts.
